parroting off of that post but it’s truly a fascinating phenomenon that wally is so thoroughly developed a character in his own runs and arguably miles more mature and possessive of the accountability to deal with certain emotional situations that the other members of the fab five continue to flail at and yet every time he’s in a titans book the greatest extent to his characterization is dumbass dickhead who doesn’t know how to do his job without someone (dick) telling him how to do it
#to be deleted#if anything this is why i sympathize with the fab five ig like they didn’t really get the benefit of writing that was intended#to help them mature. wally’s runs by loebs and waid /were/ written with his developing maturity in mind#and granted a lot of that has to do with wally’s role within the flash fam#whether that’s as a son / nephew / husband / uncle / father / etc#so his maturity was grounded in being the family man#which arguably not every titan also needs to be. some of them aren’t made for the settled domestic life#but it’s a shame they were afforded little opportunity to mature otherwise#except for roy i do think he was getting there for a while before things went haywire early 00s
